In this edition we present messages from each agency of the UN in Pakistan about the work they are doing to help achieve the SDGs in the country. We also begin a series of interviews with our donor countries to the UN in Pakistan that show how our partnerships are supporting the goals and helping improve the lives of Pakistan’s people. As well, we share a number of articles by UN leaders that demonstrate how we are supporting Pakistan and promoting the SDGs as One United Nations.
We celebrated UN Day by bringing more United Nations information and resources to the Pakistani people by releasing the “United Nations Basic Facts” in Urdu and launching UN Corner bookshelves, and by showing the human stories behind the SDGs through photography. Through efforts like these, we continue to bring the goals to life to inspire the people of Pakistan and the world to strive for a better future.
We also commemorated a number of other important UN observances in the past two months, including the International Day of the Girl Child, World Food Day, World Cities Day, World Habitat Day, and Global Handwashing Day. This edition includes stories about our activities to promote these days and our efforts to promote and achieve the SDGs behind them. And, we continue to share the inspiring real life stories behind the SDGs that show positive changes in people’s lives.
Thank you to the members of the UN Communications Group and the UN Country Team for continuing to help make this magazine possible. I would also like to especially thank the donor countries who contributed to this edition for their collaboration and for their partnerships that will help us achieve the SDGs in Pakistan.
